Discover how we think, play and celebrate football!
Kids and grown-ups alike can discover the fascinating connection between football and the human body in our brand new exhibition, Head, Shoulders, Knees & Goals.
Explore the science behind movement, the stories that shape identity and the joy of football fandom through hands on play, sensory moments and incredible objects.
This Score Gallery exhibition reveals the impact that sports science, exercise, nutrition and even clothing can have on performance. It also goes beyond the pitch, taking in the sights, sounds and smells that form an integral part of the matchday experience for supporters on the terraces.
This exhibition has been made possible with the generous support of The Players Foundation.
The Players Foundation is an independent charity that offers support and advice to current and former professional footballers and scholars who find themselves in charitable need.
